its actually a really great venue for street cars, because there isnt a lot of difference in how you would setup the car for standing mile versus street driving and highway racing.

A couple guys have managed to go off the runaway and flip the car... but its not common.
Yea man Thats what i want to do. Theres just no where to do it around here in louisiana. Really and truly in my opinion the faster car is the one who wins in a long run because it is truly faster. I run down my dads lingenfelter supercharged c6 z06 so I know the z would be a good contender in a standing mile in its class. As for the drag strip itll run 10s. Itll take more people in the drivers seat. The 370 is farelly new and the turbo kit is very new so itll happen in time.
